Re: 170 - Tape Drive Trivia

["Keith Carpenter" <CarpCon@xxxxxxx>]

Did you give both tape drives a seperate SCSI address (id) ?
Both are probably set to 0 and the CD is probably set to 1. Check the jumper
settings on the back of the units and give the tape unit replacing the CD
drive the same address as the CD. All devices on the same SCSI bus need to
have a unique address.
